We had them in the family house before my grandparents passed away...front load washer and dryer, both made by LG. They'd be about 4 years old now. I'm not a mechanic by trade, but I've been known to return home quite dirty in the past (TractorSam could attest to that one, I'm sure!), and they never struggled. And yes, there was a significant reduction in the consumption of water, electricity and soap products. The Dryer didnt have to work as hard, as the faster rotation of the drum of the washer removed more water.

Couple things to look for...I'm pretty sure they're all like this now, but make sure you get a "HE" washer....uses special, high efficency soap (HE), but its commonly available up here, about the same price, and lasts a long time. Also, make sure the washer is direct-drive from the motor to the drum.

Beyond all that, they can be quite entertaining to watch, since you have a large glass window thru which you can watch the action. Passed more than a couple hours that way in winters past!
